Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities
It was an excellent stay. Room was very clean as well as common areas. Loved the ambiance of the hotel. Will stay there again. The staff was friendly and helpful.
Very Nice Staff. The do need repairs...holes in walls and obvious leaks from the floor above in the bathroom....looks like they have surface mold. But nice otherwise.
This is a very nice choice for Albuquerque and a nice green area with some walking area around it. I felt safe here unlike many other properties in Albuquerque.
So, the property is a little dated, and vould use a make-over. Overall the staff was friendly and helpful.
Other than the freeway noise, it was a great place to stay.

Good location - very clean.
This property is right off the highway interchange on the south side of Albuquerque. It's a convenient location with lots of food choices nearby. The rooms are very clean. It's not a new property, but has regular events and seems up to snuff.
The hotel is conveniently located next to the interstate and in a part of town that appears safe. The hotel bar and restaurant were nice, the staff were friendly.
We came into the hotel late on a Saturday night. We did not have a reservation. The young lady that was working the desk was extremely nice and very helpful. The property itself is beautiful. The room was perfect and very quiet. We will definitely be back for another stay.
